Hello from Gregg C Levine
There are probably man pages for that issue, and I've looked at the one for
login, and also the one for passwd. But I must be missing something there.
So here's the question: How can I have a bash shell ask for the password
created by running passwd? 

For example I can reach this system from my other box, using a commercial
SSH product, but when it asks for a password, and I type in the one I
created, it rejects it. Obviously I need to set something in the shell
manager options are set. Be reasonable folks I have not used Cygwin in over
a year, and I am rather rusty at it. 

Oh, and I solved my problem with running SSHD that I posted earlier about,
simply by running it directly. Simple enough for my needs. But I must be
missing the obvious.
